    Just barely in car, but a pretty good view as I had not yet installed the radiator. Was 324, now bored, stroked, and cammed.

    Here's my new engine installed in the roadster and also a shot of my grandson as we got ready to go on the first test run. We both had "ice cream headaches" from the 39 degree cold and no windshield. We got the run in and made a few memories while we were at it.
